Marshall

Howie and I revisited another Adirondack high peak on Saturday - Mount Marshall. I decided to make it more interesting by doing a loop (Indian Pass -Iroqois Pass - herd path - summit of Marshall - Herbert Brook herd path - Calamity Brook trail). We got to the Upper Works trailhead a little before 8 am and it was very cool out (47 degreees). So, I put on my fleece jacket. The trail through Indian Pass was very rugged and interesting. We had a perfect day for a hike - cool weather (never got above 60), mostly sunny and best of all ... no bugs. This was a long and tiring hike, but worth the effort.

Summit Elevation: Marshall 4363 ft
Round-trip Distance: 14.0 mi
Elevation Change: 3000 ft
